New Pi4B up and running.

I got around to purchasing a Pi and settled on the Pi4b I did not want to splurge on the Pi5 as I only use the Pi for HamClock. The package I ordered was the iRasptek Pi4B, 4GB, 64GB micro SD card, 2 monitor cables, cooling heat sinks, case, cooling fan and 3.5 amp power supply with an on/off switch.
I did not need 2 monitor cables, but that is
what
it came with. Also, it came with 2 cooling fans. Not sure why, unless
the
fans have a habit of failing. The SD card was loaded with Noobs, which
easily allowed me to install the Pi OS and did some configuring and update downloads. I then
downloaded HamClock, and I was once again good to go.
